In my old schema I have a 'users' table which was linked to the 'created_at', and 'updated_at' fields of almost every table in the database.
(1) In my RADICORE implementation, will I need to rename my table fields to 'created_date', 'revised_date', 'created_user', 'revised_user', in order to work seemlessly with the RADICORE auto-insert methods?
(2) If I want to do a bulk import of my user records directly in mnu_user table, what is the hashing algorithm used before storing, and after loading?
Thanks.

(1) Surely you mean that the 'user_id' column is linked to the 'created_user' and 'revised_user' columns? You cannot link a user_id column to columns containing dates.
Although I have a 'created_user' and 'revised_user' column on each table in my database I never relate them bac to the MNU_USER table as this would be overkill.
(2) You could always turn password encryption OFF during the bulk import and import plain text passwords, then turn encryption ON again afterwards. You can do this on the 'Menu Controls' screen.

I have set the user to have "GLOBAL ACCESS" and set is_disabled to N. The user_password is Nz-3jN6+lK@Ii^DE. When I try to logon I get 'Security violation.'
This is because the encryption algorithm uses a slightly different key for each user, so you cannot use the same encrypted value for different users.
